German ZDF Television Station says that the accident happened in a turn when the woman started to slip and later fell out of the train. I guess news outlets just start to reporting what they can report before a thorough investigation. The accident is talk of the day these days.
While the opening was meant to be 2020, it has gone awfully quiet around the project. Recent updates on the construction cannot be found, though the project hasn't been cancelled officially. Satellite images do not show any major construction work in the area of "Maroma", where the project was...
Small Update from the park.
1. Sweet Valley:
Coasters looks like they are ready to go. The train of the family coaster is parked on the lift hill. Couldn’t see any tests yesterday and today. There are still a lot of unfinished theming scaffolds, especially a big one in the mine train area...
I agree that the space seems to be small, but EP also said that they will work with bigger water surfaces in new area, so perhaps it is not completely ruled out that the attraction comes to Croatia.
I really think it is too early. There is not a lot of space in that area. It boarders to the Western Show which they do not seem to touch. On the other side there is the water park and the parking lot. I would guess that there are three possibilities.
1. A smaller family coaster (which is not...
I hope PA is sane enough to buy something with a decent capacity. PA is slow already and a Hot Racer with a maximum capacity of about 800 per hour would ‘cause long lines. But perhaps they see a possibility to sell more quick passes.
I am very curious, but at the same time not expecting too much.
I think he claims that the new element is some new kind of Zero G Roll. Reminded me a bit of the Flying Snake Dive on Storm Runner, but who knows what it will exactly look like in the end. My Spanish is solid, my spatial thinking is not.
I don't understand April Fool's jokes that make you look better than you are. In the end you're a park that jokes about building a cool coaster and you end up not having same one, probably because you don't have enough money. The joke is on them then.
True. Legoland New York basically looks the same, like a temporary installation. The lack of landscaping and lush greenery really makes those parks look dull.
Looks like a nice project. The area really needs an update. I really wonder where they are going to put the park's parking lot now. The plans also look like they are considering a cable car connection to the city center, perhaps a logical step: no parking lot needed.
It really makes me wonder what will happen to the TV Studio of "Immer wieder Sonntags" (a music show for German folk music), it is directly next to the two closing attractions. It is very likely that the studio occupies space needed for the new coaster.
I think it is not only about the site but about the Skyline Park owner being part of a showmen family. They usually have all the machines you need for construction.
Heide Park
Have been there only once when Flug der Dämonen opened. It is just 3 hours from me (Cologne). I cannot even describe why the park doesn't attract me.
For me it lacks innovation and good theming. My sister feels exactly the opposite and loves going there. So we booked a trip in...
Etnaland
Tried to go there by public transport from Catania. Ended up in the middle of nowhere at the Circumetnea Station of Valcorrente. Had to walk for 2 km along a busy road in the heat. We were the only ones at the park basically.
Better rent a car or take a private shuttle service.
Remember that Mointainglider "Vertigo" in Walibi Belgium? It looked so huge and impressive and had to be torn down because it didn't work reliably. I also guess the ride experience was not worth the effort as it looks rather dull.
Also "Dawson's Duell" in Bellewaerde comes to my mind. The...
